Question
Answer
Pitting edema   swelling displaced by finger depression (INTERSTITIAL EDEMA)Can signify disease  
🗑
Non-pitting edema   Local accumulation of edema that affects just the area of edema accumulation. (Under eye bags) long standing edema can lead to skin damage.  
🗑
Causes of edema   1)increased capillary press(CHF,Clot) (2)Vasodialation(allergic rx,burns) (3)Decrease in colloid osmotic pressure(liver kidney fail) (4)lymph obstruct(filariasis, lyph removed) (5)Na/H2O excess(CHF,Hyperaldosterone, renal fail)  
🗑
Inflammation   A series of dynamic processes by which tissues respond to injury  
🗑
Acute inflammationChronic Inflamm   acute: blister, pus. chronic: Scar.  
🗑
Acute inflammation Tissue events   1)Hyperemia (2) exudation (3) emigration of leukocytes  
🗑
Hyperemia   release of chem mediators: histamine cause vascular dialation  
🗑
Histamine does two things   vascular dialator and vascular damage/leakage  
🗑
Effects of histamine on vasodilation   vascular dialation seperates that epith cells causing gaps that leak out fluid and then proteins. Protein leakage causes decreased oncotic pressure allowing more fluid to leak out.  
🗑
Acute inflammation Exudation   increased release of fluid that occurs from the drop in oncotic pressure from the release of histamine. This is Edema  
🗑
Types of Exudates   Non cellular: (1)serous (blister) acellular; (2)fibrous contain fibrin.CELLUAR: (1)purulent: plasma,fluid,protein,bacteria(2)Suppurative: plasma,fluid,protein,bacteria and residue of tissue cells  
🗑
Acute inflammation Emigration of Leukocytes   Exudate enters extravascular space caused increased blood viscosity, the Hemoconcentration spreading out the bl cells (migration) and lining the epith celle (pavementing) the white blood cells start squeezing out the gaps (diapedesis)by chemotacic forces  
🗑
What three things must happen for restoration of function to occur   1) Vascularization must be good (2) no perm tissue damage (3)good lymph drainage  
🗑
Scar tissue Vs Granulomas tissue   Scar: hard and not very vascular.Granulomas: fragile and very vascular  
🗑
First intention wound healing   Ex surgical incision very neat and easy to approximate ends  
🗑
Secondary intention wound healing   Ex Trauma with tissue loss or necrosis takes much longer to heal  
🗑

🗑
Classifications of asthma   1) Atopic= allergic/extrinsic (2) Non-atopic=intrinsic/idioathic (3) Exercise induced (EIA) (4) Mixed  
🗑
Atopic asthma characteristics   1) Mostly kids (2) assoc w/ allergies (3)diminish in later years (4) seldom assoc w/ chronic bronchitis and emphysema (5) Triggered by specific allergens * will see increase IgE  
🗑
Non-atopic asthma Characteristics   1) usually adults (2) No allergy (3) Increased severity w/ age (4) assoc w/ nasal polyps, chr bronchitis, emphysema (5) TRIGGERS: non specific/ no clear reason  
🗑
Non-Atopic Exercise induced asthma Charateristics   1) school aged kids (2) Attacks devel after increased activity (3) patient healthy and asymptomatic before activity  
🗑
Non-Atopic MIXED asthma Charateristics   1)Adults w/ passed history of atopic or non-atopic asthma (3) accounts for the MAJORITY of cases **Can include mix of ALL asthmas  
🗑
What occurs that triggers Exercise induced asthma   Exer alters fluids H2O levels and increases cortisol which triggers attack. When body regulates itself attack stops.  
🗑
Pathogensis of ATOPIC asthmas   1)Exposure to allergen/rx to allergen sensitivity (2) immun Rx w/IgE (3)IgE/mast cell coupling (4) Reexposure to allergen (5) Cells Release mediators: histamine, bradykinin, Leukotrienes (6) Bronch spasms (7) resp distress  
🗑
In an allergic Rx what are the mast cells?   Eosinophils  
🗑
Why do bronchial spasms occur in asthma   They are a response to allergen and bodies response to chemical mediators released (they tell the body to do this)  
🗑
Pathogensis of NON-ATOPIC asthmas   1) Genetic defect in synth/metab of c-AMP (decreased avail c-AMP)(2) blockage of beta-adrenergic recep in bronchi thrfor decrease beta andrenergic stim (3) UNopposed constriction of smooth muscle(CANNOT BE STOPPED) (4) bronchial spasms (5) resp distress  
🗑
Pathogensis of NON-ATOPIC asthmas made easy!   The internal system has gone awry due to c-AMP defect so the system doesnt have enough to work properly, so there is no way to stop the constriction or spasms cuz homeostasis cannt stop the spasms through normal routes.  
🗑
Things she finds interesting when looking at Mixed asthma   DIET, obesity, poverty  
🗑
Morphological Changes of asthma   1) Peribronchial smooth muscle layer-hypertrophied (constricted) (2) basement memb thickens causing collagen deposits over time (3) bronc mucosa edematous w/ inflam exudates-MAST CELLS (4) Lumen reduced diameter w/ mucus plugs causing denudation  
🗑
Consequences of morph chx of asthma   1)impaired vent (2) impaired expiratory function= gas exchange (3) progressive pulmonary hyperinflation: to compensate for condstricted lumen cuz its not meeting available volume capacity  
🗑
Early stage disease progression of asthma   1) Prog airway obstruc (2) prolonged expiration:dyspnea, wheezing (3) + vols trapped air (lead to pnuemothorax) (4) + residual vol (5) - IRV and vital capacity (6) Breath w/ - vol/uses + energy (7) loss of tussive force and + fatigue  
🗑
LATE stage disease progression of asthma   1) Expir worsens (2)+ muscular efforts to expel air(accessory) (3) +transpulmonic press (4) Resp impairment (5) - alveolar went (6) V/Q mismatch (7) gas impar (8) cyanosis

🗑
Astma Treatment Approaches   Long term bronch inhailers, antiinflam agents, short term bronchodialators.sensitization therapy may help by exposing self to trigger agent and desensitzing.
